“IWS’s partnership with the Jefferson Belmont Regional Solid Waste Authority (JBGT) has resulted in enabling the JBGT to give back to the community through grants, clean ups, recycle programs and many other opportunities. IWS supports JB in its efforts to Reduce, Reuse, Recycle by helping reduce material that goes into the landfill.

As community partners we educate and provide access for residents to make a cleaner tomorrow for generations to come.

IWS has invested and modernized the landfill in our county to reduce odor and reuse gases produced there. Mr. Cieply and his team are a pleasure to work with and are constantly looking for ways to improve the process and engage in being a good neighbor.”
